《Missing in Action》歌词

[00:00:00] Missing In Action - Ernest Tubb

[00:00:02] Written by：Arthur Q. Smith/Helen Kaye

[00:00:08] The warships had landed and I come ashore

[00:00:15] The fighting was over for me evermore

[00:00:23] For I had been wounded they left me for dead

[00:00:29] A stone for my pillow and snow for my bed

[00:00:37] The enemy found me and took me away

[00:00:44] And made me a prisoner of war so they say

[00:00:52] But God in his mercy was with me one day

[00:00:58] The gate was left open and I ran away

[00:01:06] I returned to the old home my sweet wife to see

[00:01:13] The home I had built for my darling and me

[00:01:21] The door I then opened and there on a stand

[00:01:27] I saw a picture of her and a man

[00:01:35] The clothes she was wearing told me the sad tale

[00:01:42] My darling was wearing a new bridal veil

[00:01:50] Then I found a letter and these words I read

[00:01:57] Missing in action she thought I was dead

[00:02:05] So I kissed her picture and whispered goodbye

[00:02:11] My poor heart was breaking but my eyes were dry

[00:02:19] I knew it was too late for her now to learn

[00:02:26] I knew she must never know I had returned

[00:02:34] A vagabond dreamer forever I'll roam

[00:02:41] Because there was no one to welcome me home

[00:02:49] The face of my darling no more I shall see

[00:02:56] For missing in action forever I'll be
